Harbert Realty Services, the developer, won approval for the designs of the apartment tower, which will have more than 300 apartments, a rooftop pool and fitness center, retail and restaurant space on the ground floor and a six-level, 500-space parking deck surrounded on two sides by more walk-up apartments.

The main tower will be built on what is now home to a vacant building that most recently was a diagnostics center between Temple Beth-El and One Highland Place on the Five Points South end of Highland Avenue. The deck and walk-up apartments are slated for a surface parking area to the rear across 14th Avenue.

The project, which still has no official name, must return to the committee for final landscaping approval and approval of the project’s signage plans.

Dean Nix, senior vice president with Harbert, said the hope is to start construction in late March or early April.
